Evangelist Graham Preaches on Christian 'C.E.O.' Lifestyle

TORONTO – American evangelist Franklin Graham boldly preached about the cost of calling oneself a follower of Jesus Christ and the absolute obedience God expects from His people on the closing night of MissionFest Toronto.

The son of Billy Graham – renowned preacher and one of the most admired people of the 20th century – began his message proclaiming that Jesus Christ is the only way to God and that God loves man and sent Jesus to die on the cross for the salvation of humanity.

However, the message was not focused on love, grace and the pleasant aspects of Christianity, but on the cost and sacrifices that everyone who calls himself a follower of Jesus Christ must be willing to accept.

Using the acronymn C.E.O. – standing for cost, excuse, and obedience – Graham presented the requirements for a mature Christian life.
